Men’s soccer set to kick off the 2019 regular season with opener at Boyce College

CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. – CU men's soccer will officially get the 2019-20 athletic season started for Campbellsville University as they open up their regular season schedule on Thursday against Boyce College at 7 p.m. ET.
 
The Tigers will head up to Louisville, Ky. to face the Bulldogs as both teams will be playing their first game of the season. Last year, Adam Preston's squad finished with a 12-8 record and a trip to the NCCAA Championship after winning the Mid-East Regional.
 
 Boyce is coming off of a 2018 season where they finished 5-11-1 overall and 3-4-1 in NCCAA play. The Bulldogs only play within the NCCAA in the same Mid-East region as Campbellsville.
 
CU will look to rely on a core of returners in defender Connor Grant, midfielders Marc Lawrence and Tom Edge, forwards Azad Iliozer and Gustavo Izzo, and goalkeeper Owen Stott with a majority of the 2019 roster welcoming newcomers to Campbellsville.
 
Following Thursday's match, the Tigers will also have the first home regular season contest for any CU program of 2019 when they welcome Central Methodist University to Finley Stadium on Sunday.
